How do I install AYS on Windows Remote Desktop Services (RDS)?

AYS may be installed on a Windows Server with Remote Desktop Services (RDS) in order to run AYS on Windows remote clients.

For instructions on installing any application (such as AYS) on Remote Desktop Services, please see the Microsoft TechNet article: Remote Desktop Services Deployment Guide.

It is recommended that Remote Desktop Session Host be used rather than Virtual Desktop Virtualization Host.

It is recommended that Microsoft Access databases be hosted on the same server as the AYS program, although they can be hosted on a separate dedicated file server. While Microsoft SQL or MySQL databases may be hosted on the same server as the AYS program, it is recommended that they be hosted on a separate dedicated SQL server.

It is recommended that other applications that AYS may communicate with (e.g. Microsoft Office and Intuit QuickBooks) be installed on the same server as the AYS program.

It is recommended that you configure Data Execution Prevention (DEP) for AYS on the Windows Server to avoid Windows BEX errors.

On Windows Server 2008 and earlier, Remote Desktop Services (RDS) was known as Terminal Services.
